Why don't you put one out there then? A lot of people did.

and yes @Mods what will happen to dusts?
This is a good point. I must admit, my case is not the most detailed yet, but at the moment the person that acted the most in this way is Breshke. Even though tbf, he didn't get many town points and is on the radar of some of us. Which is good Will check the filters of more people soon to find out.

I also explained why I discarded loaf for now and why I chose Breshke and not Zen, even though I thought Zen is suspicious, but not as clear.

I also then voted him but that was because as i said he had non committal reads. He basically hadn't given a substantial read on anyone but loaf and even that was iffy. This vote was a placeholder and superbia was pushing for people to jump on his bandwagon so i thought I'd indulge him for a bit and see if he had some play lined up.

I agree my posts are generally too short i don't know if this is my play style or what but i probably need to improve that. Yes i don't always use peoples answers to my questions but it lets me see their thought process and tries to keep conversation flowing. Next the bolded section. Are you saying here you know Zen is town? This was posted before the flip and confuses me because the way i voted there if i was a 3rd party i would have probably assumed that i was partners with Zen not he town and myself mafia. You are obviously reading Zen town so why did you not say anything in his defense at all?Also i'm interested to see the quotes of where i inset chaos because i don't think i have been doing that. I was calling you scum before but this post is making me reconsider. First, though: The bolded section, if I'm reading this correctly, is saying that you looked at the game from a third party view and saw yourself and zen as the most scummy so voted for someone else(me)? Why are you looking at the game from another point of view if you are town? Please let me know if I read that incorrectly. Sorry i didn't explain that very well. So elvis says "He simply jumps on something he as a mafia knows is not mafia, is a good scapegoat and has a decent case against the person. This is the perfect opportunity for him as mafia to strike and hide." So if you look back i vote Zen after superbia prompting me to do so then fairly soon after change my vote to you FF. Let's pretend i'm Elvis thinking Breshke is mafia. He sees this vote and says he thinks its me jumping on voting on a town. So by this logic he thinks Zen is town. Why didn't he try and stop the lynch why didn't he even mention this anywhere else? Wouldn't the better assumption to come to at that point be that me and Zen were partners and i was getting worried about the vote on him going through. In fact im fairly sure this is what your reaction my change of vote was saying i was getting nervous. I realize this is probably poorly explained so if you have anymore questions about it feel free to ask.

Show nested quote +What bugs me about this post, is that he really likes this post, which basically trashes loafery, but still he reads loafery null. If he likes this post so much, why does he not let it influence his read on loaf in any way whatsoever? As well as the almost-blind-sheep of superbia's case. Fecalfeast - I have 3 questions for you. Let's imagine that null is not an option for answers. What do you think is the alignment of : Elvis, Rad, loafery.
I liked the post because the poster was actually trying and putting effort into his post. I liked the post as evidence of Elvis! being town. What I didn't like was elvis unvoting just because he didn't think his target was going to get lynched. If you think someone is scum, it shouldn't matter what the rest of town is doing until there is a chance of a no-lynch.I read rad town even though he doesn't like me too much. He seems to be trying to make use of a busy schedule's limited time. Could be a story, though who knows. Loaf is null still. Yeah people have made decent arguments about him but I personally don't find things like assuming himself to be confirmed town as scummy as others seem to.
At this point I read everything and was deciding on who's filter to inspect more throughoutly. The main reason was not because I didn't think it would get through, but that I had concerns about loaf maybe just being donkey town and seeing that there is more important targets for now. If loaf gets more suspicious again I will start another push.

will comment on the other things in a second. In the short notice (I only had like 20 Minutes for all the research but wanted to put a meaningful post. Real life fucks that stuff up sometimes.

To try and sum it up: I do not recall ever calling Zen town. I know I did make an educated guess, that in the case Breshke is mafia, Zen is not. I also said that Zen really leans scum BUT that I also think that I'm not quite sure about Zen, which is the main reason I voted Breshke. Even though Zen appeared fishy and even though I liked some of the content people pushed against him, I said that I'm not sure on his case, but that he seems very scummy. My thinking into this was: "Okay we have a couple of people who are a bit or a lot like mafia usually are. Zen seems very fishy but Breshke seems more clear. Let's try to back that up and make a small case out of it." Tbh I didn't quite think through that I indirectly called Zen town with this. Not what I wanted to express. I hope my main message got through I know that this post didn't have a ton of quality and long thinking going into this. This will improve the next times.
Also I might have been misinterpreted. I wanted to make sure that my main point in the push was him inflicting chaos. Not the vote.
On a unrelated note: loaf is being donkey again:

The objective for town is to FIND THE SCUM. Scum hunt first and foremost, theorycraft after. How do you think scum hunting works? I'll tell you... by looking for areas of suspicion and following up on them. What have you done the entire game? 1. Piggy backed on other people's ideas.No need for me to go into the whole abuse/loaf aspect, as it's been beaten to death already.

It's hard to see if you're not engaged in the thread, and scum are most likely to be disengaged. (I'm reading the thread updates as I write this and I see Super has just pointed this out, even using similar terminology. Whatever, someone will jump on this as me piggy backing on super but it explains why I dropped that pressure on him so... point stands) 2. Constantly explain what town is supposed to do.Seriously, this is the bulk of your posts. See: http://wiki.mafiascum.net/index.php?title=WIFOM3. 0 scum huntingThis is the kicker for me. I pointed this out before and urged you to interact more, but it hasn't changed. You still haven't scum hunted, only theorycrafted. Theorycrafting is the easy part, especially in newbie games. Scum hunting is difficult and requires pushing and adjusting to the situation as it changes. You've just sat back and passed judgement while complaining that there's no content and claiming that people who are scum hunting are scummy for it. I was waiting for you to come back into this thread and drive the conversation before making my conclusion. Instead you've made a terrible case and done nothing else. ##Vote: The_Zen_Man you vote zen here, but you're also piggy backing on super's claim so what's difference? Adding in 2 points to the arguement? From what i can see zen pushed on super so he has been scum hunting and apparently on me also before so I don't see that as a valid reason for you to having voted for him and he was town, not a very good town but nonetheless town. Believe it or not, I had already written #1 and as I refreshed to check updates, super had said the same thing. Zen was NOT scum hunting, at all.
This guy just messes my brain up so much.

I really need to go sleep now (almost 3am and I have uni tomorrow) and will be back in approximately 15 hours. Will most likely have a good amount of time then.

This might be in the wrong order sometimes, but I gave a comment to everything I find chaotic, disruptive, useless, fitting into everyone, trying to get town cred, not committing to pushes, generally posting low amounts of text per post not doing throughout analysis. All of these for me are scum indicators. Gotta go to training now, thus I don't have time to polish this, I hope it's satisfying. I wanted to get this out now since Breshke for some reason wants people to wait for this.

for my defense of being noobish I frankly didn't read this part of the OP. My mistake. To be frank, it's my first time playing semi-open or any kind of open setup. It's always been where everyone knows which roles there are and its fixed.
I srsly don't want to bring in external factors to the game and my credibility and what not. If I have to then so be it...
But atm i want to read abuse as scummy for trying so unnaturally hard and tunneling into lynching me. Do you not agree then that people reading you as town just for misreading the OP could be scummy then? Like this is something that could be faked so i don't see how people can get a town read off that. Also in my opinion not trying to answer questions is scummy because it makes it seem like you have something to hide but I understand there been so much focus on you so there's a lot to answer. I'm uneasy about superbia and ff saying they both basically disagree with the push on loaf but aren't pushing on anyone themselves. Who are you both scum reading? Who do you think should be a wagon for today?
Also my biggest town at the moment is abuse from his hard push on loaf as he was the first one to actively push his reads and doing this as mafia would majorly put the spotlight on him if loaf gets lynched and happens to flip town.
Breshke telling people to read scum and start a wagon, while he himself has no reasonable case yet? He had his one on ff, but even though he puts him as scum he doesn't really push for it, doesn't start a wagon, doesn't encourage other to read into ff more, and mostly, is in not commital about it. The thing that concerns me the most is that he votes for someone who noone made a big case of yet and doesn't really analyse ff in a big way either. So if you read him scum, why not be confident, research and make a case out of it?

This post has been frequently talked about, what's more confusing than defending a player, and then claiming he's scum for reasons he himself isn't fulfilling? Where's your committal reads? Going on the player everyone is on about without giving much proof or anything isn't committal.

Looking back on this i think this is very scummy. ##Vote: Fecalfeast
Just because two people go on the same person (which you did go on as well) doesn't mean one can "tell the other what to do". How is that relevant? then " He has said he doesnt like to be lumped together with super and then votes along side him without explaining anything. " so did you.

Do you like the people who pushed on loaf for the same reason? Yeah, abuse is probably the one that had most of my arguments already written. I do however not share all of abuses opinions and do believe that he is pushing for loaf too hard. I would for instance not vote on him this early, as it is definetly too early to prove that he is a scum. Better to simply do a FoS, as it will give an indicitation of what you think of the person, but not have all dirt throwback that often comes with voting on someone. What it looks to me like super was really asking is what you think of abuse based on abuse's reads. You say he is pushing a little too hard, why? Mostly it was because of the vote. But i also think that some of his arguments are a little more hardline than mine. I share most of abuses opinions on loaf, but i think the biggest thing we differ on is the whole loaf asking about roles thing. I really think that loaf was merely confused and asking about the rules when he said we all should claim roles, and I believe him when he says it was like that on another game. Your reasoning for differing from abuse's opinion is that you believe he misinterpreted the rules. Nobody is using that fact anymore and the basis of abuse's argument is more on how loaf words his posts, not how he read the OP. I'm still a little gun-shy with voting people like this but you have some things to answer for, zen... Just vote, you can always retract your vote.

I would for instance not vote on him this early, as it is definetly too early to prove that he is a scum. Better to simply do a FoS, as it will give an indicitation of what you think of the person, but not have all dirt throwback that often comes with voting on someone. What it looks to me like super was really asking is what you think of abuse based on abuse's reads. You say he is pushing a little too hard, why? Mostly it was because of the vote. But i also think that some of his arguments are a little more hardline than mine. I share most of abuses opinions on loaf, but i think the biggest thing we differ on is the whole loaf asking about roles thing. I really think that loaf was merely confused and asking about the rules when he said we all should claim roles, and I believe him when he says it was like that on another game. Your reasoning for differing from abuse's opinion is that you believe he misinterpreted the rules. Nobody is using that fact anymore and the basis of abuse's argument is more on how loaf words his posts, not how he read the OP. I'm still a little gun-shy with voting people like this but you have some things to answer for, zen... Just vote, you can always retract your vote.
As above mentioned - just like yours I feel like. If you make a reasonable case on Zen, fine, but you basically just agreed with everyone else and cruised by. Since we now know Zen is town, this makes a lot more sense to do as mafia.

Probably not that useful but whatever i did it. I then go on and say I am reading loaf town because he actually starts scum hunting and stops talking about previous games. He even has the same mindset as me in going for superbia as he had been not actually pushing on people at this point. Then onto my post about Zen. I feel Zen is more of a newbie like me. You guys are very good at constructing cases on people, I read them and think oh i want to add to this then just end up rearranging the words and posting it not realizing that ive just completely copied your post plus like one little extra argument I've thought of. This is what Zen did and after doing this myself i thought i could try explain it as people were getting worked up about him telling "lies". I also then voted him but that was because as i said he had non committal reads. He basically hadn't given a substantial read on anyone but loaf and even that was iffy. This vote was a placeholder and superbia was pushing for people to jump on his bandwagon so i thought I'd indulge him for a bit and see if he had some play lined up.

I will insert more quotes that support this asap, but due to real life issues I had less time than I thought I would. My current read for the most scummy is: Breshke: ##Vote: BreshkeHe does post an amount which is not suspiciously low, but moslty in a very short manner each time. Even though he asks some questions, there rarely is follow-up, more analysis or just generally use of that information. I see this as a subtle way to try to hide being mafia, shallowly you appear non-mafia, since you can see him posting and gathering some information, but I think what he's doing is more to confuse town than to hunt scum. Which is what we're here for. The only way he "contributes" is with a fishy vote on Zen, which Superbia and the surrounding characters have a decent case on, but Breshke was merely a small time before the vote, defending Zen against accusations. A townie would adress why, and in detail, one should not only follow a bandwagon, insert personal thoughts about the case and support it. He simply jumps on something he as a mafia knows is not mafia, is a good scapegoat and has a decent case against the person. This is the perfect opportunity for him as mafia to strike and hide.Then there is multiple posts which insert chaos, which according to this analysis (yes abuse I too have read this one - it's really good), is exactly mafia's role. To sum it up: How do I think I detected him? He not only does donkey things like loaf, but things that stop us from scumhunting. He jumps on a bandwagon that even though it has a decent background, might be close but not quite(read: a lot of people are getting read as scum at the moment, most people vote on Zen because to them he appears a little more scummy than the rest, but not in a crazy substantial way). my current list: abuse + superbia go the most into scumhunting. I like how they don't fear to be in the spotlight and get their cases forward(!!!). They share position 1 - would not put them in my town circle quite yet, waiting for cases on more people (which they announced already) to happen. Rad is not as intense in doing so as they are, but I don't see scum indicators and few town indicators, so he's on position 3 in my town Position 3 - leans town FecalFeast for me at the moment is null, I can't really say what his actions indicate the most, will look at him in more detail later when the next big thing happens. He does not seem dangerous or disruptive, so he's not a scum read for me. position 4 - null. dusts: -- no position --.  loafery for me at the moment is just making a whole bunch of weird actions which might or might not be intended to be disruptive. Since some of his things are more scum-like than town he is Position 5 - leans scum. Zen for me still is the second worst of them all, but for me I think Breshes disruptive and chaotic actions are more clear. He might be the second scum with breshke, since he isn't as obvious as Breshke for me atm I'll not vote for him. Position 6 - leans into scum like a drunk guy on a fit girl. Breshke - see above. I agree my posts are generally too short i don't know if this is my play style or what but i probably need to improve that. Yes i don't always use peoples answers to my questions but it lets me see their thought process and tries to keep conversation flowing. Next the bolded section. Are you saying here you know Zen is town? This was posted before the flip and confuses me because the way i voted there if i was a 3rd party i would have probably assumed that i was partners with Zen not he town and myself mafia. You are obviously reading Zen town so why did you not say anything in his defense at all? Also i'm interested to see the quotes of where i inset chaos because i don't think i have been doing that.
Same with you. I really don't get you at this point. You love pointing out how people are not doing good cases or analysis and are jumping onto people while your posts rarely exceed a couple of lines and we are yet to see you push someone substantually.

Free townpoints to anyone who says why breshke is scum. (I will post the answer closer to the end of N1).
Also either say why i'm scum or don't. Don't tell people you will read them town if they call me mafia. If i'm mafia i'd have a partner who would get a free town read. I see no reason for this post.
... and everyone else would read you like they should anyways. If a mafia openly reads you mafia this might very well make him slip up because he can not be commital to such a read. I don't think having everyone read a person about his alignment at once is terrible and I don't see how this is "has no reason". Some people are suspicious about you, why wouldn't they ask everyone else how they feel about you? To remind, you did this a couple of times (blindly asking about someone feels about X person).

Zen you are about to be lynched you need to leave us with some info who are you reading scum other than superbia as much as rad doesn't like lists a list wold be fine.
Why did you post this same thing twice? So by that you are positive that Zen is town, am I right? It would be useless to have a mafia explain how he feels about stuff. So I conclude that you read Zen town, since you didn't vote on him and didn't like the case, why didn't you defend Zen, why didn't you ask for his opinion on other at a time where things could actually be changed? At this point it's too late to save him and vote mafia, if you think his reads are important why not try getting them earlier? In your list it says Zen leans scum, why would you want him to do a read?

Then this list. To not rant about all the other things again: Why are there no explanations on any of these? This is a default list for anyone wanting to get town points by ranking the popular persons high.

to try to finally clear this up: I made the assumption that in the case Breshke is scum (which after further investigation seems very likely), Zen would be a nice bandwagon to jump on. I did not specify there if he just would bus Zen or if I think Zen is town. I still read Zen as scummy, but like loaf, he might just be a weird townie that does unusual stuff that's usually done by scum. This is the main reason I voted for Breshke and not Zen. I thought Breshke doesn't just seem weird but outright scummy. At the point of my EoD post on Breshke I focussed on him, read his filter and thought to myself "what if he is scum. then he knows Zen's alignment. If Zen, against what I thought, isn't scum, this would be the perfect time to go on a bandwagon. Maybe Zen's very scummy town then!" and in all the hurry, I posted.
|
I literally came to this conclusion while going through Breshke's filter like 40 minutes before the deadline, as I posted 20 Minutes before EoD.
|
Ît could just be a JK or a doctor instead of a vet
|
So apparently now according to Breshke I'm mafia for no mafia reasons. There solely is town reasons behind my post and through my analysis of Breshke I have enough reason to say why he is not only useless and hiding, but outright disturbing us at scumhunting. Really just read my big post for the reasons. If Breshke would have read my posts right he would know that there is not contradiction between calling someone very scummy but yet town. Saying I'm scum for this sole reason, which I explained multiple times already, is pointless, there is no decent analysis at all of my case in his post, it's basically just OMGUS.
This OMGUS defense just further proves how he doesn't have any town motives. If a town thinks someone is mafia, the townie would make a posts with proof of scummy behaviour and thus stir up discussion on the matter. While everyone can feel free about talking about my alignment, since I've got nothing to hide I think it's pointless and that we're not doing proper scumhunting with this. Looking forward to everyone else's posts on Breshke and other scum pushes. Especially from superbia since he said he now has to reevaluate everything and I'm interested in what he'll come up with.

Scum can NOT know what the set up is at the moment. They REQUIRE knowing whether it was a vet or not to know what the setup is. All scum could possibly know that town doesn't is whether or not scum has a roleblocker. That's it. No other information has been revealed to give them any clue as to what the PRs are. Now that I look at the setup better you are right that scum will know what the setup is if they know if there is a vet in the game. Still, do you think giving them that information in exchange for receiving information ourselves is such a bad deal that you would vote a townie for this? Because that's not helping town. Also it's no good assuming that scum do not have a brain to have ideas as to what the setup could be right now, judging by other people's posts so far.Scum's main job currently except for causing mislynches and staying hidden is finding PR's. I like your rage though. +1 town point. Why would scum have more of an idea than us. it's like you are trying to scare the pr or pr's into outing by saying mafia know who they are. Does it not make sense to you why i am reading loaf as town now? I think Elvis is mafia and currently i refuse to believe that everyone who voted on Zen was town. Look how noone even tried to defend him or anything none of you guys even tried to get reads from Zen before he was lynched if he had ended up being mafia what would you have gone on to try and find his partner so no i refuse to think you can all be town so then i come to the logical conclusion that loaf is town. So you arn't even going to consider elvis's possible slip anymore? Are you reading him town then? Because scum have more information on their end, because they know what roles they are, so they know more what signs they should be looking for. And no it is not like I am trying to scare the PR's into outing, where the fuck did you get that idea? I am EXPLICITLY saying in pretty much all of my posts that other PR's should not out right now under any circumstances. This is precisely the reason why I am voting you now. You are making stuff up, while trying to paint me black. Currently there is no way in hell I am going to consider elvis a bigger scum than you. He did say that Zen was town before he was flipped, but as he himself explained, it IS possible that he just assumed that while trying to figure out what you as scum were thinking. Every single one of your latest posts just paints you more and more as scum. I disagree, i think that especially on D1 even if you can get a PR read on someone it is extremely hard to tell what PR they are so i don't see why you have any reason to say that you think that mafia probably knows who PRs are. Why mention this at all if not to scare town. I'm not making anything up, im not even reading you as mafia at the moment you are null for me i have no idea what you are doing but I really don't think both mafia would be the two main people to push on me because if i getting lynched i WILL flip town and it its going to look terrible for you two. Why would he assume that at all then? This makes no sense if he assumed he was town in a read on my why is he in his scum. why is that scenario even going through his head. Abuse I know for a fact that at least 2 of your 3 scum reads this game are wrong and i don't know if this is because you are mafia or confused town. Get out of your tunnel for a second and assume i am town or just take me out of this game completely. Who would be your scum reads?
Why is that thoght going through my head?
Like according to you I am not allowed to not be sure about Zen. I never said Zen is scum for sure. If you want to be good townie you have to view everyone as a possible scum/town, view from their possible perspective and then decide on what to post. I only went through the possibility of Zen being town and it made a lot of sense for me, everything combined and makes sense so far. I could not have known that beforehand, but mafia is a game of assumptions. So why would I not go through scenarios where Zen is town and you are mafia?
Why is that scummy, why is that forbidden, why does it not make sense to you?
Talking about assumptions, this is one of the weirdest things you said so far. So far us towns people don't know anything except that Zen was town and that the night kill didn't succeed. Throwing around buzzwords like "I know for a fact" is just claiming things you don't have any proof on. As an example, how do you know abuse isn't mafia? He's obviously not my top candidate for now but he could be. I would never be sure about these things if I don't have proof, which is really really rare in the game of mafia. Except if you are mafia, of course........ As I forgot I haven't voted today yet: ##Vote: Breshke

You said this and it makes no sense to me the only thing they know is if there is a role blocker or not.
I do agree that other people need to talk and ill be going to bed soon and hope to see content from others in the morning.
Which leads to them knowing a lot about the setup. If there is a Roleblocker, only 2 scenarios are possible: Mafia Roleblocker Town Cop Town Doctor or 1-shot Bulletproof Townie Mafia Roleblocker Town Jailkeeper
So they would know that there cannot be a Tracker.
If they know there is no Roleblocker it can only be Town Cop Mafia Goon Vanilla Townie or Mafia Goon Town Doctor Town Tracker
So they would know that there cannot be a 1-shot Bulletproof Townie.
How does talking about this amount of information not make sense? It's very relevant how the situation would be after roleclaims, and if it might have advantages for the town.
Why do you refuse talking about all kinds of possible scenarios? It's not like there is an obvious answer to them.
To repeat: Zen was not 100% scum for me at the time. If someone isn't 100%, which since this is the game of mafia is extremely rare to happen, he must always be available to be seen as townie. You don't want people to tunnel? Allow different perspectives.
This is the most interesting thing you have said on the topic:

First of all, of course I don't mean you're letting chaos meteors rain from the sky when I'm talking about "inducing chaos". Inducing chaos for me means you're not being productive, you're distracting town, you're not hunting scum, generally posting stuff that doesn't lead us to find scum. As I posted in my previous posts, I have found a lot of times where you weren't scumhunting, preventing scumhunting and more. Anyone just read my big 2 posts on Breshke.

I know im town and i know Zen was town. that is two of abuses scumreads. How can you have a problem with me saying that? You know why you don't talk about the possible setups? Because it is mafias reactions to these posts that help them find PRs. We arn't even in mylo yet so unless a PR has useful information i don't see any point in talking about them, It is still weird to me that Zen was your second biggest scum read even bigger than loaf who you had made a case on and yet you considered him town trying to use vote logic. The thing is that the vote logic there would have also worked if he was my scum buddy so i still don't see why you would use the world where you assume he is town. I still think it was a slip. Also there are other reasons i am calling you scum. Your entire first post on me was bullshit. two of its main points were the vote on Zen and that i was causing chaos. I then called you out on the vote on Zen and you said that that point wasnt important it was more the causing chaso. I then ask you to show the quotes you promised that show i am causing chaos. What you come back with is sub par andyou never point out exactly where i am misleading town or causing chaos. So once again i will ask you Elvis Where was i causing chaos? Also who do you think my "scum" partner is?FF i find that you are reading Elvis town because he has done the most work worrying. Abuse has done so much more than him and doesn't dodge my questions when I ask him to explain parts of his read.
Well obviously I read Zen bigger scum than loaf, I posted that at this point loaf is just being weird and doesn't seem to have big scum motives. You made a case on him as well and didn't really explain why you changed your mind so quickly except saying "He's a newbie, too" . Pulling the newbie card is a convenient yet useless excuse to change ones mind.
I don't know who your scum partner is, yet. You at the moment are quite undisputable scum for me, noone else is close at the moment.
talking about "newbie" stuff is not helping anything and inducing chaos.
A big example of you being scummy is talking over and over again about how it's absolutely unthinkable for you to have me think Zen isn't scum. I posted multiple times that at the time of my posts on the matter I didn't read Zen as surefire scum. The scenario where he's not scum but you are makes a lot more sense. You say I should have considered you two being a scum pair. A scum pair where on of the two makes a push on the other? If properly hidden this would be a really good scum manouver, but terribly difficult to pull off, since either you bus your partner or you have to pull back in a weird fashion, which would be criticized and considered as a scum behaviour.
Then, talking about being unreasonable, chaotic, disruptive, you just go OMGUS on my post against you, only defending yourself against the things you want and "defending" by saying I'm mafia basically.
Then you post a "case" on me that's a couple of lines long, has no quotes whatsoever and only focusses on 1. The Zen-scum-thing, which I explained multiple times and on 2. me not proofing your chaotic behaviour, which I already did a lot, I just didn't call it that way (and apparently you think about the term "chaotic" a lot differently than me - I have no idea what you'd call chaotic, since you just say you're not without reasoning) 3. me generally "being bullshit" and 4. me making a case on you.
This is not at all townie behaviour. Town would be able to proof their point with quotes and would find usual scum indicators and slips if there are any. The only thing you think you "found" is the Zen-dilemma. On day 2 a single thing should not make up your whole read and should make you reevaluate if that person is scum.
Then, you desperately try to get everyone to think similair to you and tell them 29034570982745 times they should have a look at your post about me. This is not a townie move, people will look and consider your case if they think it's legit. With these kind of posts, your not scumhunting or supporting scumhunting at all.
You post a lot, but almost never find any scummy things, almost never talk about people other people consider scum and defend with a OMGUS post, calling someone mafia for way too less reasoning.

Not relevant, we're not trying to find a proven townie. You're basically trying to look townie via a random qoute that could make any idiot discussing a lot "probably town". The basic message of the quote is alright, but it's a general thing that's not applicable to your case.
Afterwards the posts about loaf getting modkilled. Why don't you look things up before making such a random post that's just plain wrong? There is no reason to post something you didn't research properly as town. Still you post impulsively on things that are just distracting town from scumhunting. This is chaotic.

So you want someone to filter dive someone else, but haven't really done so at all. Why do you want Superbia in particular? Why don't you post a detailed opinion on Superbia before demanding something like that? You could have just said "look who you find the most important to dive" or "I think this person is xyz, do you think so too after looking at his filter?".
You never post detailed reads on anyone. This is what mafia do. They post, they read people mildy, they push midly, they don't proof, they post a lot of stuff that doesn't help to find scum, they post distracting stuff, and post a lot of useless stuff that tries looking non-useless. I asked you multiple times why you don't do usual town deeds like doing detailed posts. Detailed posts are what follow up questions and gathering of information. You try to look townie by gathering, but you never use your information. You are yet to provide town with more than a couple of small reads and these small reads don't have a lot of information used in them. You are guessing, you are calling people out, but you're not having substance behind it.

Everyone else start doing your final posts so we have enough time to talk about them! I don't want us being in a hurry like last time. At the moment most people haven't posted a clear opinion and EoD is coming close!

Superbia if he's town, he's the most ridiculous town possible. we might as well be playing 6v3 then. Even though this is a newbie game I don't think someone would be this pointless as town. It also depends on the others. If someone makes a convincing case that is more convincing than my own one, I might, under extreme circumstances change. That would need crazy amounts of proof of breshke not being scum and the other person to be more scum. I really highly doubt this is possible to happen at all at this point. How we learned from Zen, we always have to be ready to reconsider, since 4/8 voted him scum. I'm sure this will not happen with Breshke.
